Description
This junmai nigori sake from Niigata is lightly cloudy and off dry, with aromas of sweet rice porridge and fresh cream rounded out by a touch of citrus and tartness. The texture stays smooth and clean rather than chalky, finishing dry rather than sweet as many nigori styles do. Its name nods to the Yuki Otoko, a mythical snow dwelling figure from Niigata folklore.

Aoki Shuzo Co.,Ltd
Nigata
Una kura con 300 años de historia en Uonuma, tierra de la nieve. Fundada en 1717. El sake de Aoki Sake Brewery, representado por la marca 'crane-age', surge de los dones del país nevado y las técnicas tradicionales del Echigo Mori. Entre los sakes de Niigata que suelen mostrar un estilo 'Tanrei seco', la cervecería aspira a elaborar un sake 'Tanrei en boca' que preserve el sabor auténtico del arroz sake, y a transmitir ese gusto a las próximas 100 generaciones.
